This guy is a true volunteer for Obama's brown shirts. Wait till Obama starts forcing your children to volunteer for his civilian force under the guise of serving the country. What is most outrageous is that the dear leader will start his brown shirts program on 9/11. This is thanks to the stupid republicans who voted for the give/serve act.

As a veteran police officer for 33 years I feel OBLIGATED to say that the most disturbed citizens that view this video are going to be other police officers. It’s embarassing, astonishing, frustrating,and not indicative of 99% of all other police officers… black, white, hispanic, asian, native american, male or female. I’d like to personally thank this police officer for complicating the jobs of all of us, especially the minority officers who have to put up with even more crap than most of us! Thank you for allowing every bigot in the country the opportunity to lump every black officer, male or female, into the category of race favoring, anti-American,and stupid products of affirmative action! Most of us worked hard just to BE a police officer, are well trained, knowledgable of the law, can apply the law, can remain professional and unbiased in exactly these types of situations, KNOW what our duties are… which includes protecting first amendment rights, especially speech with which we disagree, and have the ability to think on our feet. At least, when I’m teaching the rookies I’ll have some video of a real life situation that depicts what NOT to do. I can ASSURE the citizens that the police are NOT going to be government thugs and if the politicians think they can use us as such they’ll get a rude awakening. Please don’t judge the rest of us by this one incident.

Let Major Morris know that, contrary to what his officer thinks, this is STILL America, the Constitution has not yet been scrapped, the First Amendment still applies, and their oath requires that they respect the right to free speech of all Americans, even when the officer does not like the speech. The First Amendment does not just protect speech the officer on the scene agrees with, and he is not free to implement his own mini-constitutional suspension zone.

Just me: disturbing to see it… and reminded of it. That particular incident and sequence of events actually “slapped” a lot of us in the face as to what could happen and how we could be used and many of us, as a result of that and a couple other events were forced to have an “epiphany” about it. Also, there are police departments and then there is the NOPD, historically the most corrupt police agency in the land. During Katrina, several officers set up shop in a hotel, robbed civilians by gunpoint, broke into stores and looted the merchandise… while their brother and sister officers were working the storm. Some didn’t even bother to show up to work. That just doesn’t happen in other parts of the country. Since that particular incident on the video, NOPD has worked very hard in getting rid of the bad apples.

Dave: OMG. This is why the militia movement still exists. To say that this doesn’t happen in other parts of the country, well, hmmm. More correct to say it hasn’t happened yet. Curious Dave, what is your opinion on an armed populace?

Neil: I love the idea of an armed populace. Most police are comforted by knowing that law abiding citizens will “have our back” if necessary. Believe me, we come across armed citizens every shift. Once we know there’s no threat, there’s no problem. It pisses me off, and a lot of us, to hear some politican hack chief of police somewhere supporting some limitation of gun ownership and severe restrictions for permits etc… while that same guy carries a gun to protect himself. High level politicians and famous people that oppose gun ownership while they have armed Secret Service or armed protection agencies and bodyguards is another sore spot with me. As far as militias (ones not conducting a criminal enterprise)one only has to pick up a history book militias are one of the few “checks and balances” that keeps this country, and has kept this country, from a totalitarian government. The civilian politicians in power are the ones that have exhibited the biggest problem with militias… and mostly the liberal ones at that. Neil, my point wasn’t that it doesn’t happen in other parts of the country, my point was directed about NOPD during Katrina that exposed criminal thugs that were police officers. That’s what I meant.
